Punk Rock Feminism At It's Puriest

"Frumpies' One-Peice is a compilation disc of all the 24 songs of their 5 7" single releases. Kathi Wilcox shreaks out her vocals beautifully proving there is no need for a multi-million dollar record studio. The Frumpies are the pure definition of what proud indie punk was meant to be, from the upbeat instant hook first song that pulls you in to the beautiful soft vocals Kathi Wilcox is able to produce in songs such as "intertube Tomorrow" and "Eunuch Nights"."

"Everyone who has ever been in a band on Kill Rock Stars was, at one time, in a band with everyone else on Kill Rock Stars. The Frumpies are the product of the non-Kathleen Hanna members of Bikini Kill as well as one member of Bratmobile, but they don't sound like either one of the aforementioned bands. Even if you didn't love it when Kathi and Tobi sang in Bikini Kill, you could easily like the Frumpies. Their highly creative indie rock noise album certainly isn't as confrontational as Bikini Kill was, but they take care of business just the same. Stories from boring towns about spoiled kids and teenage betrayal are well written, even if you can't always understand the words, and "deep" without being condescending or boastful. The Frumpies are angry, but they don't have to rip out yr heart to show it; They know they can get you right where they want you with just a chord or two."

AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME

"I absolutely love this cd. Frumpies include members of Bikini Kill (Kathi, Billy and Tobi) and Molly from ex-Bratmobile and the Peechees. Very loud, especially when Tobi sings. Extremely punk."
